The Transient Electromagnetic Method (TEM), also known as the Time Domain Electromagnetic Method (TDEM), is a geophysical exploration technique that uses electromagnetic induction to study subsurface structures. This method involves transmitting a pulsed electromagnetic field into the ground via an ungrounded loop or grounded wire source. During the intervals between pulses, a coil or ground electrode measures the secondary eddy current fields generated by subsurface conductive materials.
At its core, TEM operates on the principle of electromagnetic induction. The decay of the secondary field is typically divided into three stages: early, middle, and late. The early-stage field corresponds to high-frequency components, which decay rapidly and have a shallow penetration depth. In contrast, the late-stage field represents low-frequency components, which decay slowly and penetrate deeper into the ground. By analyzing the temporal variations of the secondary field, geologists can infer the electrical properties of subsurface materials at different depths.
Applications of TDEM for Soil Resistivity Resistivity Imaging for Mining TEM for Geological Surveys
The TEM method is widely used in various fields due to its versatility and accuracy. Key applications include:
